That’s a good beer, I thought, as I sipped my "Man-Nook Ale" and stared out at the water. Strange name for a brew, but an anagram of where I now was, solidly on an isthmus, in a Midwestern college town that’s also a capital, where one of 20th century America’s most innovative architects was educated. I thought of my own hometown and the letterbox there, also near water, buried under the bushes that are used to make gin.
What’s the best way to get to it, I wondered. First things first: the first name of the man for whom that Midwestern college town was named. Walk along that street for a few blocks. Then think of that architect and multiply the number of letters in his first name by the number of letters in his second name and multiply that by his total number of names. When you see that number on a house, turn right, then finally left on the Water. Turn right at the flowered triangle, then over the bridge built when the architect was 30.
After the bridge is another triangle, formed by electrical poles, five spruced up sisters on the right. In the middle of it, you’re at the top of a hill and you’re so close you can almost smell the gin.
